Hotel Meade

Bannack, Montana

This hotel is alleged to be haunted. A young girl in her teens, Dorthy Dunn drowned in the dredge
pond along Grasshopper creek on August 4, 1916. She first appeared to her best friend, who was with
her on that fateful day when they decided to go swimming, and witnessed the drowning of Dorthy.

Today, Dorthy Dunn is seen mostly by children, wearing a blue dress, and has tried to talk to them.
She has also been seen looking out one of the 2nd story windows, in one of the guest rooms or perhaps
the large front Room with the balcony, which overlooks the street. She was the daughter of the hotel
manager at the time, and probably had access to this large suite.

Very cool. It seems coming out from a Stephen King's history... :-)
